This is a polyline:
_______________________________
What means here forward or backward?
Maybe first vertex = start, last vertex = end, and direction = start to end?
Use CoordinateExtractor to get _indices{} list attribute added to feature and then access the first and last coordinates as _incices{0} and _indices{-1}

Have a look at the OrientationExtractor - http://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_Transformers/Transformers/orientationextractor.htm
